Official Version Number Breakdown

• Main version: 8.60
• Build number: 020
• Minor revision: 5592
• Status: Latest stable / production-ready

2.1 The MBR and the Boot Sequence

Upon installation, Deep Freeze modifies the Master Boot Record (MBR) or the Volume Boot Record (VBR) depending on the partition style (MBR vs. GPT).

1. Interception: When the computer is powered on, the Deep Freeze driver loads before the Operating System (OS).
2. Redirection: It creates a virtualized layer. When the OS writes to the disk, Deep Freeze intercepts these writes.
3. Mapping:
   • Frozen State: Writes are redirected to a temporary space (a redirection table or cache file, often Persi0.sys or similar hidden system files). The original sectors of the "Frozen" drive remain untouched.
   • Thawed State: Writes are allowed to pass through directly to the physical disk sectors, permanently altering the data.

Key changes (assumed typical for a point release)

• Stability fixes: Patches for crashes and memory leaks reported in prior 8.60.x builds.
• Compatibility updates: Improved support for recent Windows 10/11 updates and security patch interactions.
• Security hardening: Fixes for privilege escalation, service permissions, or update mechanisms.
• Management/CLI improvements: Minor enhancements to command-line or remote-management behavior.
• Localization/packaging: Updated installer metadata and minor localization corrections.

2. Protection Against Malware and Ransomware

Since Deep Freeze removes all changes upon reboot, it acts as a powerful layer of defense against malware, spyware, and ransomware. If a virus infects the machine while Frozen, a restart wipes the infection entirely.
